No Cardio Workouts in P90X2

         In the original P90X workout, there was cardio exercise every other day. Cardio is great for burning extra fat and to help make the heart stronger. However, Tony Horton has announced that there will be no cardio exercises in P90X2. Now you may be thinking why this is. Well as Tony explained it, you will be working so hard, your heart rate will already be high enough like you are doing cardio exercises. Additionally, Tony said that Beachbody and the original P90X already have enough cardio exercises and you could hybridize those into the new P90X2 program. Finally, since P90X2 is really only for P90X grads or people who are already in great shape, most of them wont need cardio to burn off fat or lose weight. Cardio is only going to help them strengthen their hearts and stay in shape, and all the cardio they are going to need will be in the workouts. So to be honest, no cardio workouts will allow P90X2 trainees to be able to focus more on building muscle and getting in the best shape they can.
